(b)
Location. Eligible properties include those located within
the city limits and lands outside the corporate limits over
2
which the city exercises zoning jurisdiction as permitted
3
by law.
4
(c)
Ownership. Eligible applicants for preliminary plan review
5
shall be a landowner of record or an authorized agent. The
6
approved final development plan shall be binding on all
7
subsequent owners of the land until revised or repealed as
authorized in this article.
8
(d)
Staging. While this article encourages submission of
9
comprehensively planned development proposals of entire
10
ownerships, a preliminary plan need not cover the entire
11
property owned by the applicant. Applicants may choose to
submit a phased development program incorporating
12
incremental final plan for subareas of the entire
13
ownership. Although the entire ownership must be shown, a
14
boundary survey or some type of device showing streets,
15
drainage or other boundary feature must be provided in
16
order to phase development. In such cases the applicant
shall adhere to the approved development schedule for the
17
phase submission of final plan. If the applicant cannot
18
adhere to the time period approved, he may submit a written
19
request for extension from the planning commission. A
20
maximum of two (2) one -year extensions may be granted by

5
recorded as approved prior to the issuance of a building permit.
6
(b) Preapplication Conference. Before submitting an application
the landowner or authorized agent shall confer with city
7
staff in order to become familiar with the development
8
review process. The staff shall inform the applicant of any
9
perceived problems that may arise. A further purpose of the
10
preapplication conference is to make sure that the
11
applicant has, or will be able to, submit the necessary
information for filing the application. The intent of this
12
conference is to provide guidance -to the applicant prior to
13
incurring substantial expense in the preparation of plans,

forwarded to the planning commission. A public hearing for the
21
preliminary plan shall be set not later than sixty (60) days
after filing and shall be legally advertised as specified in the
22
zoning ordinance.
23
At the public hearing before the planning commission, the
24
applicant and interested citizens will have the opportunity to
25
discuss the merits of the development proposal. The planning
26
commission will assess the proposal in light of ordinance
guidelines and will take action after weighing the

directors for public hearing and disposition. If the revisions
13 are determined not to be in conformance with the intent of the
14 conditional approval, the revised development plan will be
15 resubmitted to the planning commission for public hearing.
16 Appeals from the action of the planning commission shall be
17 filed with the city clerk. The content of the appeal filing
shall consist of (1) a cover letter addressed to the mayor and
18 board of directors setting forth the request; (2) a copy of the
19 application indicating the planning commission action and
20 properly executed by the staff. This filing shall occur within
21 thirty (30) calendar days of the action of the planning
commission.
22
(d) Final Development Plan. The applicant shall have three (3)
23 years from the date of preliminary plan approval to submit
24 the final development plan. Requests for extensions of time
25 shall be submitted in writing to the planning commission
26 which may grant extensions of not more than three (3)
27 years.
Time extensions shall be applied for before expiration.
28 Failure of the applicant to file a timely extension may result
29 in revocation of the approval.
30 The final development plan review shall be conducted by the
31 planning and public works staff. They will review the final plan
32 to determine that no substantial changes were made to those
elements of the plan agreed upon in the preliminary plan. If
33 substantial changes are found to have been made to the agreed
34 elements, then the application must be resubmitted for
35
36 -10-
• •
647
1 preliminary plan review. The staff will also determine that
2 those elements conditioned by the board of directors were
altered to meet the board's specific requirements. In certain
3 instances such as condominium construction, final plan approval
4 shall be held in abeyance until such time as an as -built survey
5 is prepared and concurs with the final plan.
6 The final plan shall be deemed to be in substantial
7 compliance with the preliminary plan provided the plan does not:
(1) Increase proposed floor area for nonresidential
8 use more than five percent (5 %).
9 (2) Increase total building coverage more than five
10 percent (5 %).
11 (3) Increase building height more than five percent
12 (5 %).
(4) Increase total number of dwelling units more than
13 five percent (5 %) within a given phase.
14 Fluctuation greater than the above shall be
15 permissible, provided overall density is
16 maintained.
17 No public hearing is necessary to consider modifications on
location and design of streets or facilities for water,
18 stormwater, sanitary sewers, or other public facilities required
19 as a tentative condition of approval of the preliminary plan.
20 The burden is on the applicant to justify any variation between
21 the approved preliminary plan and the final plan.
If the planning staff finds that only minor differences
22 exist in the final plan, the staff shall approve the final plan.
23 Approval or disapproval of a final plan by the staff shall occur
24 within sixty (60) days of the filing of the plan. The applicant
25 may either resubmit the final plan in conformance with the
26 preliminary plan, or file a written appeal with the planning
27 commission within thirty (30) days of the refusal.

22 notice by certified mail shall be sent to the landowner or
authorized agent giving notice of the alleged default, setting a
23 time to appear before the planning commission to show cause why
24 steps should not be made to totally or partially revoke the PUD
25 or PD. The planning commission recommendation shall be forwarded
26 to the board of directors for disposition as in original
27 approvals. In the event a PUD or PD is revoked, the board of
directors shall take the appropriate action to prohibit any
28 further development and shall file for record such action in the
29 city clerk's office and the public zoning record duly noted.
30 (c) In the event of revocation, any completed portions of
31 the development or those portions for which building permits
32 have been issued shall be treated to be a whole and effective
development. After causes for revocation or enforcement have
33 been corrected, the board of directors shall expunge such record
34 as established above, and the planning commission shall resume
35
36 -17-
1 approval of the final development plan and shall authorize
2 continued issuance of building permits.
Sec. 36 -459. Bills of assurance, covenants, trusts and homeowner
3 associations.
4 (a) The developer shall create such legal entities as
5 appropriate to undertake and be responsible for the ownership,
6 operation, construction, and maintenance of private roads,
7 parking areas, common usable open space, community facilities,
recreation areas, building, lighting, security measures and
8 similar common elements in a development. The city encourages
9 the creation of homeowner associations, funded community trusts
10 or other nonprofit organizations implemented by agreements,
11 private improvement districts, contracts and covenants. All
12 legal instruments setting forth a plan or manner of permanent
care and maintenance of such open space, recreational areas and
13 communally -owned facilities shall be approved by the city
14 attorney as to legal form and effect, and by the planning
15 commission as to the suitability for the proposed use of the
16 open areas. The aforementioned legal instruments shall be
17 provided to the planning commission together with the filing of
the final plan, except that the bill of assurance shall be filed
18 with the preliminary plan or at least in a preliminary form.
19 (b) If the common open space is deeded to a homeowner
20 association, the developer shall file with the plat a
21 declaration of covenants and restrictions in the bill of
assurance that will govern the association with the application
22 for final plan approval. The provisions shall include, but not
23 necessarily be limited to, the following:
24 (1) The homeowners' association must be legally
25 established before building permits are granted.
26 (2) Membership and fees must be mandatory for each
27 home buyer and successive buyer.
(3) The open space restrictions must be permanent,
28 rather than for a period of years.
29 (4) The association must be responsible for the

(6) The association must be able to adjust the
assessment to meet changed needs.
Sec. 36 -460. Development standards, conditions and review
guidelines.
(a) The planning commission shall consider a proposed PUD
or PD in light of the intent, purpose, standards and review
guidelines set forth herein. Primary emphasis shall be placed
upon achieving compatibility between the proposed development
and surrounding areas so as to preserve and enhance the
neighborhood. Proper planning shall involve a consideration of
water conservation, preservation of natural site amenities, and
the protection of watercourses from erosion and siltation. The
planning commission shall determine that specific development
features, including project density, building locations, common
usable open space, the vehicular circulation system, parking
areas, screening and landscaping, and perimeter treatment shall
be combined in such a way as to further the health, safety,
amenity and welfare of the community. To these ends, all
applications filed pursuant to this article shall be reviewed in
accordance with the same general review guidelines as those
utilized for zoning and subdivision applications.
(b) Residential density. Residential densities shall be
determined on the basis of the following considerations: The
densities of surrounding development; the densities allowed
under the current zoning; the urban development goals and other
policies of the comprehensive plan, the topography and character
of the natural environment, and the impact of a given density on
the specific site and adjacent properties. The following
specific guidelines shall be used in evaluating an application:
Units Per Residential Unit Guidelines Gross Acre
Single - family 4
Zero -lot -line (patio homes) 4 -6
Duplex, townhouse 6 -12
Garden apartment
(1 or 2 floors) 13 -18
Medium -rise apartments 19 -24
High -rise apartment
(over 6 floors) 25+
(c) Maximum coverage. The planning commission shall review
OCC
656
1
specific proposed lot coverages which generally correspond to
the guidelines for lot coverage in the respective residential,
2
office, commercial or industrial district which most depicts
3
said development scheme.
4
(d) Lot size. There shall be no minimum standards although
5
existing standards of this chapter and chapter 31 shall be used
6
as a guide.
7
(e) Setback. There shall be no minimum standards although
existing standards of this chapter and chapter 31 will be used
8
as a guide.
9
(f) Building height. There shall be no maximum building
10
heights except as may be determined by the planning commission
11
during the review of the preliminary development plan based on
12
the uses within the development and the proximity of the
development and the proximity of the development to existing or
13
prospective development on adjacent properties. Building height
14
within a development may differ from parcel to parcel, but in no
15
instance shall building heights within a parcel exceed the
16
height generally permitted for similar uses within the
conventional zoning district wherein the use would normally be
17
located. A lesser height may be established by the planning
18
commission when it is deemed necessary to provide adequate light
19
and air to adjacent property and to protect the visual quality
20
of the community.
21
(g) Screening and landscaping. In order to enhance the
integrity and attractiveness of the development, and when deemed
22
necessary to protect adjacent properties, the planning
23
commission shall require landscaping and screening as a part of
24
a planned unit development. The nature and extent of screening
25
and landscaping required shall be determined by the planning
26
commission in relation to the overall character of the
development and its specific location. In no instance, however,
27
shall landscaping be less than that required by chapter 15,
28
article IV. This shall especially apply to planned unit
29
development projects where a change to a more intense use is
30
proposed and there are existing buildings and improvements. As
31
part of the final development plan, a detailed screening and
landscaping plan shall be submitted to the planning commission.
32
Landscape plans shall show the general location, type and
33
quality (size and age) of plant material. Screening plans shall
34
include typical details of fences, berms and plant material to
35
36
-20-
No P M
r � i
657
1 be used. Existing trees shall be preserved whenever possible.
2 The location of trees must be considered when planning the
common open space, location of buildings, underground services,
3 walks, paved area, playgrounds, parking areas, and finished
4 grade levels.
5 (h) Open space. Well designed open space is an important
6 factor in providing for innovative design and visual
7 attractiveness. Open space shall be evaluated utilizing the
following general guidelines:
$ (1) A minimum of ten (10) to fifteen (15) percent of
9 gross planned residential district (PRD) areas
10 shall be designated as common usable open space.
11 (2) Single - family, duplex, zero -lot -line and townhouse
12 developments shall have a minimum of five hundred
(500) square feet of usable private open space per
13 unit.
14 (3) No more than one -half of the common usable open
15 space may be covered by water.
16 (4) At least fifty (50) percent of the required common
17 usable open space shall conform to the average
overall slope within the development.
18 (5) Recreation facilities or structures and their
19 accessory uses located in common areas shall be
20 considered as usable open space as long as the
21 total impervious surfaces such as paving and roofs
constitute no more than ten (10) percent of the
22 total open space.
23 (6) Landscaped roof areas, accessible to all
24 residents, may be counted as usable common open
25 space at a value of sixty (60) percent of the
26 actual roof area devoted to their use.
27 (7) A minimum of ten (10) percent of gross planned
commercial mixed use district (PCD) or planned
28 office district (POD) area shall be designated as
29 landscaped open space not to be used for streets
30 or parking.
31 (i) Traffic circulation. The following traffic circulation
32 guidelines shall apply:
(1) The adequacy of both the internal and external street
33 systems shall be reviewed in light of the projected future
34 traffic volumes.
35
36 -21-
i
it
658
1 (2) Sites without access to either collector or arterial
2 streets shall be developed at a density not to exceed
twelve (12) units per gross acre.
3 (3) The traffic circulation system shall be comprised of a
4 hierarchal scheme of local, collector and arterial streets,
5 each designed to accommodate its proper function, and in
6 appropriate relationship with one another.
7 (4) Design of the internal street circulation system must be
sensitive to such considerations as safety, convenience,
8 separation of vehicular and pedestrian traffic, general
9 attractiveness, access to dwelling units and the proper
10 relationship of different land uses.
11 (5) Internal collector streets shall be coordinated with the
12 existing external street system, providing for the
efficient flow of traffic into and out of the planned unit
13 development.
14 (6) Internal local streets shall be designed to discourage
15 through traffic within the planned unit development and to
16 adjacent areas.
17 (7) Design provisions for ingress and egress for any site along
with service drives and interior circulation shall be that
18 required by chapter 31 of this Code.
19 (j) Parking standards. The off - street parking and loading
20 standards found in article VIII of this chapter shall apply to
21 the specific gross usable or leasable floor areas of the
22 respective use areas.
(k) Perimeter treatment. Notwithstanding any other
23 provisions of a planned zoning district, all uses of land or
24 structures shall meet the open space, buffer or green strip
25 provisions of this chapter and chapters 15 and 21 of this Code.
26 (1) Financing of public improvements. Where financing for
27 public improvements needed to accommodate a proposed planned
unit development is insufficient, the planning commission shall
28 encourage the applicant to establish improvement districts or
29 other equitable means of financing these improvements.
30 Sec. 36 -461. Modification of approved recorded plans by planning
31 director.
32 If an approved and recorded plan of a PUD or PD is
presented for issuance of a building permit and the plan is at
33 variance with the standards and conditions set forth in this
34 chapter, the planning director may issue exceptions within the
35
36 -22-
659
1 following guidelines:
2 (1) Does not increase the proposed floor area for
nonresidential use by more than five (5) percent. Does
3 not increase total number of dwelling units by more
4 than five (5) percent within a given phase.
5 Fluctuation greater than the above shall be
6 permissible provided overall density is maintained.
7 (2) Does not increase total building coverage by more than
five (5) percent.
8 (3) Does not increase building height by more than five
9 (5) percent to a maximum of eight (8) feet for
10 buildings less than four (4) stories nor more than one
11 (1) story for buildings greater than four'(4) stories.
12 (4) Provides for a decrease of up to ten (10) percent in
either land coverage, height or numbers of dwelling
13 units.
14 (5) The owner did not exercise the variance rights
15 contained in section 36- 454(d).
16 Sec. 36 -462. Short form.
17 (a) General purpose. Applicants for small -scale development
are offered inducements to use the PUD or PD process by reducing
18 the time and cost factors. The process is deemed necessary to
19 assure control of certain small developments while providing the
20 small -scale developer a means of gaining commitment without
21 undue financial risk. This process will at the same time afford
22 the neighborhood an involvement prior to final commitment.
Specifically, the purposes of this article are to encourage:
23 (1) Superior development and redevelopment which is more
24 desirable than that which would occur through strict
25 application of the zoning and subdivision ordinances;
26 (2) Provision of more usable and suitably located open
27 space, recreation areas and other common facilities
than would otherwise be required under conventional
28 land development regulations;
29 (3) Maximum enhancement and minimal disruption of existing
30 natural features and amenities;
31 (4) Comprehensive and innovative planning and design of
32 diversified yet harmonious development consistent with
the urban development goals and the municipal plan;
33 (5) More efficient and economic arrangement of varied land
34 use, buildings, circulation systems, and facilities;

(6) Project phasing that will ensure the balance and
coordinated development of varied land uses and public
facilities and services needed to support them;
(7) Better utilization of sites characterized by special
features of geographic location, topography, size, or
shape;
(8) Preparation of more complete and useful information
which will enable the planning commission and board of
directors to make more informed decisions on land use;
(9) Flexible administration of general performance
standards and development guidelines.
(b) Zoning districts. The districts available for short
form development shall be the same as those established for
long form under section 35 -454.
(c) Eligibility requirements and staging. The three (3)
standards of eligibility which must be met are location,
ownership, and size. Projects may be staged at the option of the
developer.
(1)
(2)
(3)
(4)
Location. Eligible properties include those located
within the Little Rock city limits and lands outside
the corporate limits over which the city exercises
zoning jurisdiction.
Ownership. Eligible applicants for preliminary plan
review must be the landowners of record, holders of a
lease for not less than fifty (50) years, or their
authorized agent and beneficiaries, of all properties
in question. The approved final development plan shall
be binding on all subsequent owners of the land until
revised or repealed as authorized in this article.
Maximum size. The maximum size authorized for filing
of short form applications shall be five (5) acres.
Staging. While this article encourages submission of
comprehensively planned development proposals of
entire ownerships, a preliminary plan need not cover
the entire property owned by the applicant.
Applicants may choose to submit a phased development program
incorporating an incremental final development plan for subareas
of the entire ownership. Although the entire ownership must be
shown, a boundary survey or some type of device showing streets,
drainage or other boundary feature must be provided in order to
phase development. Where this is done, the applicant shall
-24-
M.

15 problems that might arise. A further application of
16 the pre - application conference is to make sure that
17 the applicant has or will be able to submit the
necessary information for filing the application.
18 (2) Preliminary development plan. The procedure for filing
19 and the required fees shall be as set forth in
20 sections 36 -454 and 36 -456, except that the graphic
21 support material and developmental rationale shall be

developer shall submit a legal survey ofd the
3 tract to be reviewed. The developer shall also
4 provide a general sketch plan indicating typical
5 building siting, access and other significant
6 features of the plan.
7 In order to enhance the integrity and attractiveness
of the development, and when deemed necessary to
8 protect adjacent properties, the planning commission
9 shall require landscaping and screening as a part of a
10 development. The nature and extent of screening and
11 landscaping required shall be determined by the
12 planning commission in relation to the overall
character of the development and its specific
13 location. In no instance, however, shall landscaping
14 be less than that required by chapter 15, article IV.
15 This shall especially apply to projects where a change
16 to a more intense use is proposed and there are
17 existing buildings and improvements.
In addition to the graphic and supporting
18 documentation required for filing, the owner shall
19 provide a graphic or narrative outline of methods to
20 be employed to protect permanent undisturbed buffers.
21 The outline shall be filed during the course of review
22 by the planning commission but not later than the

25 shall apply to the short form review of development
26 applications.
27 (4) The planning staff review of final plan applications
shall take into consideration all other sections of
28 this article, as accomplished in review of long form
29 development.
30 (5) The planning commission shall consider the provisions
31 of sections 36 -459 and 36 -460 in the course of review of all
32 short -form applications.

SECTION 3: SEVERABILITY. This ordinance and its various
parts are hereby declared to be severable. If any section,
clause, provision or portion of this ordinance is declared
invalid or unconstitutional by a court of competent
jurisdiction, such decision shall not affect the validity of
this ordinance as a whole. All parts not declared invalid or
unconstitutional shall remain in full force and effect.
SECTION 4: EMERGENCY. The Arkansas Supreme Court case City
of Little Rock v. Pfeifer, has called into question the
authority of the City to consider single use developments under
the planned unit development application procedure in effect at
the time of the lawsuit which challenged such authority. Several
single use developments are in existence, others are currently
proceeding through the application and review process are
hampered by the inability of the City to proceed under current
regulations. This ordinance clearly authorizes the City to
review and approve single use as well as multiple use
developments under the planned development format, in compliance
with the Pfeifer ruling. In order to avoid confusion, delay and
costly deferral of pending applications, and to provide
stability to city land use decisions, an emergency is declared
to exist and this ordinance shall take effect immediately on the
date of its passage to protect the health, safety and welfare of
the citizens of the City of Little Rock.
